What's the thing that you've wanted most of all? What have you needed so much that you would hurt to have it? Hurt yourself, hurt others, even hurt your goal. Something you would bleed for? Because I have bled for you. I have bled for you. Isn't that dramatic? Isn't that just utterly grade A dramatic? Kind of a romantic comedy for goths, for punks, for the little self declared outcasts. It's kind of thing kids with lots of X's in their screen name (or was that last season? I can never keep up anymore) would send to each other as facebook bumperstickers. You know, picture of an attractive, vampiric lad, dressed dark, <<What's the thing that you've wanted most of all>> in some kind of scrolly white script. But your screen name doesn't have a single damn X, in upper or lower case. You don't want some bitch scrawling your name in blood or burning down the city as a cliché fireworks substitute. You want something ever so much less poetic, or, more (non-homoerotic) walt whitman, less edgar allen poe. So now I have to want you enough to stop bleeding. I want you most of all, but I don't know if I want you that much. Stick around long enough to find out?

I love it. It's fantastic... The bit that really got me interested is: Because I have bled for you. I have bled for you. Isn't that dramatic? That was when i really started paying attention. Nice piece. +1 -Gee

I like this one. When it comes to love or other such emotions, we're all pretty clueless. Do one thing, they want the other. Had you done that, they would want the prior. No right answer in life, just keep trying.
